Solid pine bench made in the late 1960s for the development of the Les Arcs 1800 resort. Constructed from simple, robust sections, this bench prioritizes a functional approach to furniture, adapted for communal use and mountain interiors. The deliberately understated design highlights the wood and the clarity of the structure, in keeping with the style of the furnishings designed for the resort's residences. This type of furniture reflects the selections made in Les Arcs during the development projects coordinated by Charlotte Perriand. France, circa 1975
